2012 No 473

State Environmental Planning Policy Amendment (Miscellaneous) 2012

Amendment of Wyong Local Environmental Plan 1991

Schedule 2

that compliance with the development standard is unreasonable or unnecessary in the circumstances of the case, and

that there are sufficient environmental planning grounds to justify contravening the development standard.

the consent authority is satisfied that:

(i)     the applicant’s written request has adequately addressed the matters required to be demonstrated by subclause (3), and

In deciding whether to grant concurrence, the Director-General

the public benefit of maintaining the development standard, and

any other matters required to be taken into consideration by the Director-General before granting concurrence.

115      Land acquisition within certain zones

(1)

The objective of this clause is to identify, for the purposes of section 27 of the Act, the authority of the State that will be the relevant authority to acquire land within the Warnervale Town Centre that is reserved for certain public purposes if the land is required to be acquired under Division 3 of Part 2 of the Land

Acquisition

(Just

Terms

Compensation)

Act

1991

(the owner-initiated acquisition provisions).

Note. If the landholder will suffer hardship if there is any delay in the land being acquired by the relevant authority, section 23 of the Land Acquisition (Just Terms Compensation) Act 1991 requires the authority to acquire the land.

(2)

The authority of the State that will be the relevant authority to acquire land, if the land is required to be acquired under the owner-initiated acquisition provisions, is the authority of the State specified below in relation to the land shown on the Land Reservation Acquisition Map (or, if an authority of the State is not specified in relation to land required to be so acquired, the authority designated or determined under those provisions).

Zone RE1 Public Recreation

Council

(3)

Development on land acquired by an authority of the State under the owner-initiated acquisition provisions may, before it is used for the purpose for which it is reserved, be carried out, with development consent, for any purpose.

Note. If land, other than land specified in the Table to subclause (2), is required to be acquired under the owner-initiated acquisition provisions, this Part is required to be amended to designate the acquiring authority for that land (see section 27 of the Act). The Minister for Planning and Infrastructure is required to take action to enable the designation of the acquiring authority under this Part. Pending the designation of the

2012 No 473

State Environmental Planning Policy Amendment (Miscellaneous) 2012

Amendment of Wyong Local Environmental Plan 1991

Schedule 2

acquiring authority for that land, the acquiring authority is to be the authority determined by order of the Minister for Planning and Infrastructure (see section 21 of the Land Acquisition (Just Terms Compensation) Act 1991).

116      Development close to a rail corridor

(1)

The objective of this clause is to ensure that development of land within the Warnervale Town Centre for the purpose of residential accommodation, places of public worship, hospitals, educational establishments or other noise sensitive buildings in the proximity of operating or proposed railways is not adversely affected by rail noise or vibration.

(2)

This clause applies to land comprising, or within 60 metres of, an operating railway line or land reserved for the construction of a railway line (referred to in this clause as a rail corridor).

(3)

Development:

(a)

that is within a rail corridor, and

(b)

that is likely to be adversely affected by rail noise or vibration,

must not be carried out unless the proposed development incorporates all practicable mitigation measures for rail noise or vibration recommended by Rail Corporation New South Wales for development of that kind.

117      Development in the vicinity of Warnervale Airport

(1)

The objectives of this clause are:

(a)

to provide for the effective and on-going operation of Warnervale Airport, and

(b)

to ensure that such operation is not compromised by any proposed development.

the obstacle limitation surface for that land shown on the

Warnervale Airport Obstacle Limitation Surface Map.

(a)

development consent, or

(b)

a permit granted by the Council.

(4)

The refusal by the Council to grant a permit to a person who has duly applied for the grant of the permit is taken for the purposes of the Act to be a refusal by the Council to grant consent for the carrying out of the activity for which a permit was sought.

(5)

This clause does not apply to a tree or other vegetation that the Council is satisfied is dying or dead and is not required as the habitat of native fauna.

(6)

Council is satisfied is a risk to human life or property.
